    Humble Bundle Android 4: final day

    Not saying that the bonuses aren't great because those are some solid games. It would be nice, however, if they added a new game or two in the second week bonus so that people who have been buying bundles all along also get a sweetener.

    Amazon offering Prime for $7.99/month?

    I'd say Netflix is definitely better in terms of library and interface but Amazon has been stepping up its game lately adding a lot of TV shows. The problem with Amazon is that it also rents/sells movies and TV shows so you'll run into situations where Amazon has the movie you want but it's...

    Amazon PCDD $12.49 Walking Dead ($7.49 after coupon)

    Very tempted by Dark Souls but I'm still busy with Borderlands 2 and have a few other games in the backlog so I'm trying to convince myself to pass for now. Hopefully it'll be cheaper around the holidays either on Amazon or during Steam winter sale. I think my target price point for DS is...

    PC Download Halloween sale @Gamestop.com

    This may be a dumb question but I have to ask anyway: Do Gamestop giftcards work on purchases on Impulse? These deals aren't great but if I can use my giftcards I'd probably pick up a few items (Dark Souls, Metro 2033, Dead Island).

    Green Man Gaming (Steam) Deals: 25% Off Hitman

    It never seems to go as smoothly as it should. A purchase on Green Man usually takes me twice as long as a purchase on Amazon or Steam. I always run into some little quirk when trying to enter promotional code or have payment processed. It's usually worth the minor hassles for the deals though...

    The Steam Deal thread V5. The big sale is over. New thread coming soon.

    This Elder Scrolls sale just isn't doing it for me. The Bethesda bundle a few months back was a much better value when it included pretty much all of their games (Elder Scrolls and Fallout) and DLC for $99. I'm looking to eventually pick up Skyrim for PC (I pumped a ton of hours into it on 360...

    The New Kindle Fires Pre-Order Thread

    I'm only interested in the Paperwhite. E-Ink screens can't be beat when it comes to pure reading experience. I love my 2nd Generation Kindle but may eventually upgrade to a Paperwhite depending on whether the built-in lighting technology works as well in real life as it does in their...

    Amazon PCDD $15 Walking Dead, $10 TERA ($15 CE) + BOGO

    I won't argue that using an HDTV is a very good solution to the monitor issue if someone is planning on building a PC only as a gaming console to play games using an xbox controller. That's what I was going to do when I started my plan to build a PC but I think that part of the appeal of moving...

    Amazon PCDD $15 Walking Dead, $10 TERA ($15 CE) + BOGO

    You can definitely scrap together a gaming PC for around that price but keep in mind when you read the $500 or $1000 builds, those numbers do NOT include the OS (Windows 7 is expensive), monitor, speakers, keyboard, or mouse. These things, particularly the OS and monitor, can easily add a few...

    Amazon PCDD $15 Walking Dead, $10 TERA ($15 CE) + BOGO

    Looks like I'll finally be picking up ME3. I didn't see ME3 DD on sale for $20 on Origin (just ME3 for $16). Figure I might as well spend the extra $4 since I'd want the From Ashes DLC. I'd rather buy from Amazon than EA anyway since I have enough points saved up after buying my new PC with my...

    Green Light Bundle

    I've played a bunch of those games on Android and they're of pretty high quality. Samurai II is pretty badass. Muffin Knight is a good time waster because once you start leveling up your characters you'll keep wanting to play another round to see how your new upgrades work out (some characters...

    Humble Bundle for Android 3 - Bonus 8/22: World of Goo, Anomaly, Osmos, EDGE

    The bonus games are all excellent but it's pretty lame that all of them are repeats from previous bundles. Is it the norm for the bonus games added after the bundle has been available for awhile to be repeats from older bundles? (I only recently got a gaming-capable PC so I never paid much...

    XBL DotW & Sales 2012 | 5/1 BF3 DLC (DotW) | More

    NBA Jam is worth the price if you grew up in the 90's and remember playing it in arcades or on the SNES. If you liked it back then, you'll like it now. If you're new to the series, it'll be fun for a few hours but you'll probably walk away not understanding what all the fuss was about since...

    The Humble Botanicula Debut - 4/26 non-game bonuses added

    Just following up on this - don't count on the average falling below $5. Last Android bundle it only went up. First day you could get it in the $5 range but after that it was up to 7 or so. Not exactly breaking the bank but if you're trying to get this as cheap as possible, you might not want to...

    The Humble Botanicula Debut - 4/26 non-game bonuses added

    Well that's really more of an Amazon issue since they try to keep the Fire locked to the Amazon App Store as the only source of apps. Of course, most apps can be "side-loaded" onto the device but I don't have a Fire so I'm not sure how easy/difficult a process that is or whether most games...

    *LOOK!* Skyrim on sale starting 2/26 @ Walmart $39.96!!!

    Can confirm this price on Long Island. Employee swore up and down that it was $60 but we made him ring it up and it showed $39.96. Perfect timing on this sale for me since I've wanted to get this game since it came out but was waiting for price drop and it just so happened to occur on the same...

    XBL DotW & Sales 2012 | 5/1 BF3 DLC (DotW) | More

    Joining in on the NBA Jam discussion since I picked it up last week and have really enjoyed it so far with a few caveats. The discussion of the past day or so seems to mix up user skill and player skill (ratings) a bit. I agree that user skill does not always play a major part in the outcome...

    XBL DotW & Sales 2012 | 5/1 BF3 DLC (DotW) | More

    Finally took the plunge on NBA Jam. Played the demo and it brought back memories of epic SNES battles. For $10, couldn't pass on it again like I forced myself to do a few weeks ago. Now I just have to finish Bastion which I picked up last week on DotW... (On a side note - pretty excited...

    Playstation Vita 3G with Free 8GB Memory Card and More at Amazon, Elsewhere

    Except the same thing happened last generation - PSP was a much better overall system than the DS yet the DS sold and the PSP didn't. As for the iPad comparison, if anything the 3DS is more like the iPad in this situation because Nintendo has a far larger group of rabid fans (and by that I...
